I 100% would recommend this home! And we do plan on returning when we visit the area again! When we arrived everything was better than described! Plenty of supplies were provided and definitely appreciated. There were so many things to do inside and outside of the home. Games, books and tvs throughout. Then outside had nice porches, an enclosed screen dining area with a grill, kayaks, paddle boards and life jackets ready for adventure. The kitchen had all the supplies anyone could ever need. Thank you for providing great amenities Aislinn! We really enjoyed our visit! We even were able to see some manatee while we were out kayaking!

Just as amazing as the photos and descriptions make it appear. Clean and inviting, well decorated, with special touches for Christmas. Being able to wake up, see a manatee in the canal, then paddle to the river to see more was amazing. The house is well stocked, we needed for nothing. The hosts were pleasant and professional. 10/10. I'd stay again!

Loved staying here! Great location near the north end of the Weeki Wachee. Loved having the kayaks. Loved the screen porch. It was really nicely decorated and a convenient location. There was a mama and baby manatee staying in the canal near the house and it was amazing seeing them up close and personal.

We selected Aislinn's place for the location and size. We were a group of 7 girlfriends getting together for a long weekend. Aislinn was very communicative from the beginning, always answering quickly. The home is decorated really cute and fit the Mermaid Retreat name to a tee. The bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious. The kitchen is a nice big open space with a central island with the sink and plenty of seating around. On each end of the kitchen is 2 large family room areas. Both have tvs and comfy couches. We binge watched a documentary from the 2 couches where each have 2 reclining chairs. I loved these so much I may be replacing my couch with one! They were so comfortable we even slept in them one night after staying up late. There is a nice area for the fire pit down by the water. We had s'mores our last night there. The lanai is a nice screened in area with a spacious table and the grill. We would definitely stay here again! This is a great place and is well worth a visit!

It's impossible to fully capture the beauty of this paradise in words! Aislinn's place had everything we could have asked for during our getaway. It comfortably accommodated all six of us, the kayaks were in excellent condition, and the house was spotlessly clean. We prepared our own meals every day, and the kitchen was stocked with everything we could possibly need. The grill was also a fantastic addition! Our trip felt like a true home away from home, and we are still amazed by the unforgettable memories we created. Aislinn was a wonderful host, always responsive to our needs. Whether we spent a day exploring Weeki Wachee Springs or returned home to cook and create lasting memories, winding down on the incredibly comfortable recliner couches while watching a movie, it was undoubtedly the best trip and the perfect house for our adventure. The memories we forged will be cherished forever, and we are already planning our next trip, with no place in mind other than here.

Notes
We are located on a peaceful canal just minutes from the majestic, crystal clear Weeki Wachee River that leads directly into the Gulf of Mexico just a mile downstream. Public boat ramps are located nearby. Weeki Wachee Springs State Park is a short drive away, or five miles upstream on the river. We include up to five kayaks (must be requested in advance). Bring your boat, canoe, or paddleboard, or just rent them nearby to experience the wildlife and beauty of Florida’s Nature Coast. The kids will also want to visit the Buccaneer Bay waterpark, the white sand beach at Pine Island, and the world-famous LIVE MERMAID SHOW only minutes away. At the end of the day you can cook your own catch or dine at one of many great local restaurants.
